MONEYSCHOOL's
High School Fundraising Program
The Perfect Fundraiser for Graduation Season
In the future, MONEYSCHOOL expects to offer high schools
in the U.S. a unique opportunity to raise money for school activities by helping us introduce our personal finance newsletter for young adults to an important audience.
We call this program “the
perfect fundraiser” because it requires so little work on the
part of the sponsoring organization, AND because it makes available
to graduating Seniors and other young adults a unique and valuable educational service. Forget about bake sales and car washes. We can help you can raise a lot more money with a lot less time and effort.
Learning to manage money is an important part of becoming a successful
and responsible adult. But national surveys consistently show that
most high school Seniors don’t have a good grasp of financial
fundamentals.
To help fill that financial literacy gap, MONEYSHOOL is publishing
an electronic newsletter called KaChing! that’s packed with
essential information and expert advice that every young adult needs
to make wise money management decisions, avoid serious financial pitfalls,
and develop the knowledge, skills and habits that lead to lifelong
economic security.
A Graduation Gift with Educational Value
High school graduation is a time when parents are focused on the future success of their daughters and sons, and financial know-how is an important part of success in life. Offering subscriptions to KaChing! through a pre-graduation fundraiser is a great way to encourage
parents, grandparents, or other more experienced adults to purchase gift subscriptions for graduating
Seniors or other young people they care about.
The Easiest Fundraiser Ever
The only thing your school will have to do to for
the fundraiser is to publicize our special discounted subscription offer. MONEYSCHOOL does the rest. Sponsors can use school newspapers,
newsletters, or websites, or they can use flyers, e-mail, press releases,
or any other method they choose. We will provide sample marketing
materials to minimize the time and effort involved for the sponsors.
At a minimum, all it takes is a few hours of work by one
or two volunteers to conduct a successful fundraiser. Our primary
goal is to get the word out to parents and teachers, and especially
to parents of graduating seniors. But with a little more effort, there’s
no reason a sponsoring organization can’t reach out to a larger
community and raise even more money.
Subscriptions to KaChing! will be purchased online at the
MONEYSCHOOL website using a special discount code for each school,
so we can credit schools for their sales. That way, volunteers don’t
have to collect subscription fees, or handle cash. Once the fundraiser
is over, we’ll send your organization a check for the amount
earned through the fundraiser.
Moneyback Guarantee
MONEYSCHOOL will offer all subscribers a 120-day unconditional
money back guarantee, beginning when the first issue is delivered.
That guarantee will allow subscribers to receive at least eight issues of the newsletter before deciding whether to cancel.
Free Companion Subscription
As another inducement to subscribe, anyone purchasing a gift
subscription will have the option to receive a companion subscription
absolutely free. We are offering these companion subscriptions as
a way to involve parents or other gift givers in the
financial education of young people.
Fundraiser Timing
Of course MONEYSCHOOL
would be pleased to work with high schools to conduct fundraisers at any time. But we believe a pre-graduation fundraiser, with publicity beginning in April, is a perfect time to offer parents of graduating Seniors an opportunity to help further the financial education of their graduates, something that can have a positive effect on the lives of those young people for years to come.
